The RU251 in War Thunder is a German Light Tank that for lack of a better description is a Baby Leopard 1. Armed with a 90mm cannon capable of firing a really decent HEAT-FS with 320mm of penetration.
The RU 251 was literally the best premium for at least a year and was the bane of heavy tanks for the Allied side. It's extremely fast and maneuverable with excellent reverse speed and great gun handling. I'm honestly surprised that no one uses this vehicle more.
Able to punch way above its weight due to its speed, the RU251 is still pretty useful all the way up to 7.7 BR before better options in the German Tech Tree start to come viable.

That Spookston impression was spot on and after he sees this video he will wait a few months to recuperate after you embarrassed him like that. 💀

@J.G. Wentworth Maybe was skipping to the gameplay part and missed it
Can't believe Bawz picked up a pocket Spookston in like a month
HE’S BACK!!! The legend! Only gone for a day but I missed it so much!
That spookston impression was gold 😂
My favorite part of my day is being able to come here and watch Oddbawz
This is 0.3 BR higher than the Type 60 ATM.
The heat post pen damage on ru 251 is impressive. Most heat shells take 2 to 3 shots or more to kill a tank.

I wasn't around during that time, but I was playing when that thing was was still 6.7 and Germany still had a monster of a 6.7 lineup as in sla 16 tiger 2 and normal tiger 2 and the 105 one the Panther 2 and the coelian j tiger and ru 251 and anything else that Germany had at 6.7 at the time
Scouting in War Thunder is literally the men's paradox of the Ketchup in the refrigerator door and the Opala 69 in a cluster of a zillion old cars from 6 miles away of distance. It's not a bug, it's a ingame recreation of this feature.
Germany 7.0-8.0 is probably some of the strongest and most fun vehicles at the BR range, somehow the team mates still make it incredibly hard to enjoy sadly but the RU 251 is a gem and i wish they had it in the tech tree because of how good it is.
The most ridiculous thing about the ru 251 is that it can be behind your spawn, killing your team, before your team even gets close to a cap point.
Ok, it's getting scary with you. Yesterday I looked through your videos for some Ru 251 footage and watched your older ones. I thought it would be great if you could make another video on this and today you blast out this awesome gameplay.
The entire series based on the Ru251 chasis are extremely fun to play, since they all share the mobility. JgPz 4-5 actually I would say is even better, since it's so low, and has amazing optics.
That stab at Spooker's absolutely wonderful! Laughed my ass off on break at work! 😂😂
Thanks for brighten up my day with another great video and a great Spookston impression keep up the great content thanks Odd!
I can't believe OddBawZ dissed his boyfriend at the very intro. Truly a madlad. I have to clarify that this is of course a joke.
This was great! Was up late too, so perfectly timed! 😀
Great vid, a nice couple of games ❤ How about you go back in time and try the forbidden German lineup? Tiger II 105, Panther II, and the coelian? Might be a bit easy, but a good for nuke games perhaps
OddBawZ speaking in the Spookston American accent is the most cursed piece of audio I've ever heard. Therapist: American OddBawZ isn't real, don't worry American OddBawZ: Warthunder has a scouting problem
It was 6.7 back in the day and was added alongside the IS-6. It was one of the few thifngs that could reliably destroy them, but sometimes both nations would be teamed up together and it was a nightmare for the rest of the nations. Not very fun times for those not driving them i gotta say
I remember when this thing was one of the fastest tanks in game, casually get to the enemy spaw just as they are getting to the first cap zone.
giving that kill to the enemy bmp was some beautiful sportsmanship
Thanks for the always entertaining content! It's my hype up to play every night!!!
Was getting worried! Hope you feel better.
one my favorite tanks, start at 5.7, was a nightmare there, moved up to 6.7, was still a nightmare, moved up to 7.7, was still playable then for some reason it got moved up to 8.7 till gaijin went on their MBT spree and now it's finally sitting at 7.0. In other words this was Germany's version of the hellcat saga.
“Bless me, I didn’t fart this time” this is the funniest thing I’ve heard all day 😂
You’re right about the RU251. My son bought me one for the holidays (back when it was new). Never used it.
A lovely combination of good light tank with danger dorito today. Thanks!
That spookston impression slayed me, oh my days.
Probably my favourite tank and I've definitely played it more than any other tank I own. If someone was going to buy just one premium tank this is the one I'd recommend

Is it really better than the Lekpz M41 seems to me like they are almost the same

@@Robin-sf3gk I play both and Lekpz M41 is a great tank and you can use them in a similar way but the RU 251 is significantly superior. I often have them in the same lineup. The RU 251 has a lower profile, is a fair bit faster, handles a lot better and importantly has a 90mm cannon rather than a 76mm cannon. Note the RU 251 has a reverse speed of 80k/h vs 19k/h which makes a big difference.
The spookston impresssion had me cracking up xD
This and the prem KT is how I grinded out the german ground tree to 9.7. Plus with fastcap and the Unicorn Me262, I ground out the air tree to 8.7. Miss the glory days of German 6.7
Speaking of Leopards and HEATFS slingers, it would be amazing to see you play the AMX-30's
It really sucks when you see “lost connection with the server” during a brawl.
I remember this ole gal. I used this to get past tier 5 cause it had all the firepower of a leopard 1 but also good mobility. Leopard 1 was basically a super slow light tank to me until I hit the A1A1 and 1a5
Has coral sea finished reworking? Haven't seen that map for a year
I once run into a ru251 in the corner and thought its over, but I pen it on front using btr-zd ap shells ; )
Amazing Spookston impression!
Tankenstein just did a video on the QF 3.7 in. Ram, and it was fun to watch. Think we could see it here too?
Hey dude, do you have the BF-109Z? That thing is an absolute demon for anti-CAS at its BR. Would love to see you make a video on it with the KV-1C :)
Didn’t know this tank existed but I got the rare camo from a box for it and I might pick it up on the next 50% GE sale
The spookston impression 😂
HAHAHAH THE SPOOKSTON IMPRESSION. Man I love both of yall and hope yall keep being on friendly terms 💪💪❤. Also great video, keep up the good work :D
That airplane shot was dirty lol
The spookston impression was so good lmao
Great video as always keep it up
Perfect for good ol Odd 'straight to spawn' Bawz
Glad that you're back enjoying the Olympic Pool with waterslides than the Inflatable Kiddie Pool. +10000 snail credits! 😊👍🏼
After playing Germany top tier for a long time I went back to 9.0 with premium Leo l44 and dam I forgot how good it was if played right
"We're not made for brawling! We're made for trolling!" These are words of wisom right here!
That Spookston bit had me rolling
Close enough to an ho229 video, thank you odd :)
thank gawd, im so glad its an actual issue with scouting the amount of times i scout on someone for it just to say place crosshair on target, and im like bruh
5:10 I am stuck, Stepbrother!
I just started researching the leopard 1 it’s gonna be a grind
As a T-29 commander, I have chomped down on many an Ru-251 with that trio of Ma Deuces. You are wise to fear it!
這台坦克其實就是當時 WWII 豹式的後繼型態 算是為了取代主戰坦克的地位, E-50的變形體 雖說是冷戰的坦克,但是設計初衷更接近輕型偵查坦克
Awesome gameplay Bawl.. ru and m18 are my favourites. Germany suffers unless you're playing caraid
Why did I get a OddBawz whisky and wealth club video?? :D
Hi can you do a lineup video like American 6.7 vid?
Why doesn’t the 251 have any tracks in the thumbnail? What’s WT up to?
30th episode of kindly asking OddBawZ to please play that one tank i really would like OddBawZ to play
i do agree spotting is very inconsistent and annoing in WarThunder. like you aim right at a enemy 400m out from you on the open field: nope not spotted, here is your penalty cooldown. meanwhile enemy 1200m out behind 2 trees and 3 bushes and only 10% visible: spotted! (the scene happened many times to me and oftend exactly as described and with the same tank)
hey bawz, did you solve all the problems w the pc?
I was sleep talking about OddBawz and Spooks last night, when I dreamt about meeting him accidentally in an airport.
1:04 you went from OddBawz to oddballs

Jeez, the exhaust effects make this thing look like it's powered by a coal engine or something, smokey as hell.
My fav tank in the game. With the br change it is even beter now then ever
30:34 "It doesn't really matter if you don't have armor as long as you're not being shot." *[mind expolodes]*
yeah, 70% is of the time scout either doesnt scout the enemy and goes on cooldown or it doesnt work at all and i have to press it again
Hope the head is feeling better Odd. Looking forward to the next one

This is what 10000 hours of warthunder looks like lmao. I have like 200 hours and pray for games that look like yours but it's always a gamble lol
Bino scouting seems to work better than scope scouting for some reason.
"I didn't fart this time" lmfao
ahhh, yes the og Kancer tank, I was apart of this, got it a the birthday discount the year it came out
I always make sure to huff as much paint as my local hardware store has in stock before playing Germany to be the second smartest player on the team
@OddBawZ for when they will add the fcm f1 to France and what BR should it be
Odd was that you yesterday in Tank Sb high?
I want a full video narrated as Spookston lol
Back to 6.7 gaijin. I want to re-live the glory days.
you should do another video on the BMP3
During the sale i decided to buy the arados It had been a while since i played the ru and damn that thing is good
would be really fun if you made a video in the Ho 229😃
Is it a better leopard or is it just better period?
Does anyone else notice that you're been getting "bad network connection" way more often recently?
Thank you for reminding me how i used to get terrorized by these things in every match.
I haven't played this thing since the days of 6.7 and hull break
I'm still hoping for a dedicated Horten video.
I love the RU-251 it’s a mini blaster and is a blast to play
odd can you play the AMX-50 TOA100 you haven’t played it on the channel yet
1:00 I was 0/4 on very very easy scouts yesterday as well. You know why? Because my daily task was to get the Intelligence streak, so of course scouting was broken...
I wish we would get notified when we’ve been spotted.
ODDBAWS I HAVE BEEN WHANTING THIS VID THANK YOU SO MUCH
I hope you will still make the Ho229 vid
So, does that mean we're getting a Horton video as well this month? :D
How many times the RU 251 brought me to Top 3 rankings is countless. It’s my numero UNO tank to start any game in the Deutschland tier ( being the only tier I play haha)
still playing it mostly, ru251 to cap, then die fast, then me262 jabo aka invincible when not up tiered. thats how I roll
Dude the way you sneeze is pure gold 🤣
